MPLayer installation failure
 
Distribution : FC6

After several attempts I have still not been able to install Mplayer.

The error is

---------------------------------

I have tried the following also :
Downloaded Mplayer RPM from Livna - Failed to install
Excluded Livna - Failed to install
Enabled Livna - Still failed to install

I think the problem might be from this :
# rpm -qa | grep mpl
libsamplerate-0.1.2-6.fc6
docbook-simple-1.0-2.1.1
mplayer-doc-1.0-0.69.rc1.lvn6
mplayer-libs-1.0.0-0.20050916.1.fc4.ut

How do I remove any older mplayer libs?

Please help to get rid of this problem. Thanks you.

Uninstall rpm`s with "rpm -e" command
Ex:
rpm -e mplayer-libs

I`ve mplayer setup and running in my fc6 .
The packages i downloaded from

freshrpms.net

First install mplayer-fonts and then mplayer.

'mplayer' installation will tell u the dependencies.
All the dependent packages can be donwloaded from freshrpms.net.

I`ll try to list the packages u need to download from that site
[Note : dont use rpm -force to install a package.it will break a lot of things]

faac
lame
libfame
libmpeg3
x264
xvidcore
mplayer
mplayer-fonts


A few packages u can get from
http://rpmfind.net/

lirc
libmpc*

Thank you very much zulfilee. It's working now and I'm happier than ever. In fact I did it like this :

a) Through synaptics removed mplayer libraries
b) Yum install

It worked!

Thanks again for your help.
